Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival in Nairobi and pick and transfer to Boulevard or Ngong House
for dinner and overnight on all meals.
Day

Depart Nairobi around 0800, for drive on Mombasa road to Kibwezi.
Here we will leave the tarmac, and take an all weather road for
about 30 kilometers where we walk to nearby caves. First, we take
lunch of salads, bread and cheese, cold beer or soft drink, then
walk to the entrance of the caves where we explore sections of one
of the longest "Lava Tube" caves in the world - Leviathan.
These caves are worldwide and are rare. Get to see some of the most
fascinating formations found there - Sink holes, lava ropes, stalagmites
and stalactites, benches and of course the secondary, water formed
features. Dinner and overnight at campsite.
Day
3
After breakfast early morning, depart by road to the top of Chyulu
Hills.
Superb walking country with gently undulating grasslands, interspersed
with dense patches of forest. Possibility of viewing herds of eland
and other antelope, giraffe, zebra and wildebeest with slightly
lesser chance to see elephant, lion and buffalo and the other game
that live in the area. Views of Kilimanjaro just 50 km away will
be evident. Overnight camping somewhere along the crest with dinner.
Day
4
Breakfast and spent the day trekking. Dinner and overnight at campsite.
Day
5
An early morning game drive or short walk before late breakfast
or early lunch. Leave along the crest road and down the western
side of the hills for the drive back to Nairobi arriving late afternoon
in time for your next destination.
We can be flexible on the itinerary while on safari. One may, for
instance, wish to spend an extra day caving (or cut out a day),
thus spend less time (or longer) walking the Chyulu Hills.
